Cranial- Sacral Therapy
Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a subtle, hands-on treatment method that aims to improve the functioning of the craniosacral system, which includes the membranes and fascia associated with the cerebrospinal fluid's pulse.
Practitioners apply a very light touch, typically no more than 5 grams (the weight of a nickel), to release restrictions in this system. This gentle approach aims to boost the performance of the central nervous system.
​
CST operates on the principle of interconnectedness within the human body, where one area can influence another. Its primary goal is to relieve tension, particularly in the fascia, which can then aid in improving the overall function of connected body parts. This is achieved through fostering the body's innate capacities for self-regulation, self-correction, and self-healing.
​
Craniosacral therapy has been found helpful in managing symptoms of various conditions, including chronic pain, fibromyalgia, headaches, migraines, neuralgia, post-concussion syndrome, scoliosis, and stroke.
By normalizing the environment around the brain and spinal cord and enhancing the body's natural ability to self-correct, CST can alleviate a wide array of dysfunctions, ranging from chronic pain and sports injuries to stroke and neurological impairments.
